Another incredible ride which will end at 165 km and 3300 metres of vertical climb! As usual, I started in Rijeka but this movie starts at Mošćenička draga where I follow (for the first time!) the main coastal road to Brseč. It's perhaps the most scenic road in Istria and I highly recommend it.
There's already a movie from Brseč so once there I focus just on reaching a cliff just outside the town, for breathtaking views. Later, the climb continues, much steeper, until Zagore and after some updowning there's a great descent! You should definitely stop at hotel Flanona for more of incredible views and then enjoy the best part of the descent - to the old town of Plomin.
After a short tour of Plomin (filmed on the next ride, actually), there's the rest of the descent, to Vozilići, followed by a rather long climb to Labin. This time, you'll see some of the suburbs as well as the city centre. Of course, the best thing about Labin is its old town, on a hill above, but for more on that you'll have to watch the next episode.

Driving on my Suzuki Burgman 650 on Istra Croatia (HR) inland, driving through amazing roads, beautiful cultural-historical villages and towns with beautiful panoramas.
I take you on my scooter rides, which most tourists on the coast forget to view.... the pure nature of Istria inland roads and places.
In this 4th and last trip of this year, I drove with the Burgman to the east coast side of Plomin. I take you with me to very historical places on this route.
History of Plomin:
Plomin, ancient Flanona, is a place of great stories and beautiful landscape. This apparently sleepy town has a rich thousand-year-old history. The fortified town is situated above a blue-green gulf and overlooks Kvarner. Founded back in prehistoric times, when the residents vigilantly observed and celebrated the forces of Nature, it has still preserved a close connection with the rhythm of Nature.
Even today there is a bellflower of Plomin on its fort, a protected purple flower that enchants the whole area with its mystical color. Its stone buildings vividly evoke the period of the reign of the god Silvan- the ancient protector of plants and animals, the Liburni pirates and their marine adventures, the ancient Romans and their mighty edifices, church dignitaries and guardians of religion, the centuries-old port and skilled seafarers, big battles in front of its door and the quietness which today it offers every visitor.

This is a summary of this entire incredible ride that will end after 165 km and ~3300 vertical metres of climbing! From the most scenic coastal road in Istria, to hilltop towns like Brseč, Plomin and Labin; from hard climbs to crazy descents, from urban to rural. At the sea level, with beaches, coves and campsites (Sveta Marina), to high above them.
Of course, it was more than exhausting but as most bike rides are - so worth it! In fact, I rode from Rijeka to Rabac again just a week later. :) Speaking of Rabac, I only explored the old section of the coastal promenade in this movie while the new one can be seen in the next (along with Gonfolići and Duga Luka).

Do you enjoy hard climbs, hard terrain and paths that don't exist? Welcome! After (finally) visiting Duga Luka and that modern, new area in Rabac, it's time to go back to Rijeka. But this time, I decide not to go through Labin but explore the upper Rabac and the hill above it! Actually, the paths above it.
The climb is rather hard, as the most direct street (the only ona up) goes pretty much in a straight line. It's a nice street though and (very) occasionally there's a nice viewspot. But soon after reaching 250 metres you enter a jungle. It starts fairly nice, I'm even able to ride, while climbing to above 300 metres. But it's still tight and soon turns from bad to worse as throny shrubs (even vines) replace any memory of a path. But I do push on and manage to reach the village of Ripenda Kras where you'll find some great views and... road. Which switches back and forth between a very narrow road and an offroad path. With rocks, of course. At least there's a lot of greenery.
But, after a bumpy and slippery torture on the rocks and gravel, comes a prize - the best view of Plomin and the entire valley! And in the perfect light. Then some more torture before I reach Plomin Luka and then the very steep and narrow road directly to Plomin, where I manage to catch the very last rays of sun. At least for that day.

Showing a bit more of Labin first, I quickly start climbing to the Old town, with a brilliant location on a hill just above the (new) city. Once there, it's obvious the views are stunning, covering almost 360 degrees. From the rural Istria and Mt. Učka in the background to the sea and the town of Rabac.
Soon after leaving, I'm on open roads, going through several villages, meeting other bikers and having a great time. There's slight updowning at the beginning but then pretty much a...flattish descent all the way. The only problem is that the brilliant greenery completely blocks any view of the sea even though it's quite close. There are some glimpses along the way but the first real view is in Viškovići, where this episode ends, pretty much at the Skitača turn.
Still, a brilliant section, with Labin's old town and then a very relaxed and actually easy ride. Which will be followed by the terror of Skitača but only in the next episode. :)
